Summary
Nevada Medicaid is phasing out Provider Type 82 (Behavioral Health Rehabilitative Treatment) beginning January 1, 2026, with complete termination by June 30, 2027. Providers must transition to new provider types like PT 14 (Behavioral Health Outpatient Treatment) to avoid claim denials.
Action Required
By January 1, 2026: PT 82 providers must begin enrolling under new appropriate provider types (recommended PT 14). By December 31, 2026: Submit all PT 82 claims for services through that date. By June 30, 2027: Complete transition to new provider type as all PT 82 enrollments terminate July 1, 2027. Contact BehavioralHealth@nvha.nv.gov for assistance. Failure to transition will result in inability to bill Nevada Medicaid after July 1, 2027.
